NEVER LEAVE YOUR SADHANA ~ Swami Sivananda



NEVER LEAVE YOUR SADHANA 

Listen! wake up now. Do sadhana (spiritual practice). Develop dispassion. Beware of the senses. Become desireless.

Conscious attempts to unite oneself with God, is called spiritual sadhana.

Never leave your sadhana (spiritual practice), your meditation, even for a day. Constant practice, and eternal vigilance, are indispensable, till God-realization is attained. As long as you do not realize the truth, practice self-control and meditation.

Be regular in keeping your spiritual diary. Spiritual progress will be greatly quickened. Go to bed early (10 pm) and get up early (4 am). The early morning hours are most favorable for meditation.

Spiritual discipline is the key to God-realization. Discipline the body and the senses and the mind. May you attain God-realization, now and here.

Subjugate the senses. slay this egoism. Curb the mind, and enter the illimitable domain of immortal bliss.
 

Om Krishna!
